The only information that I have in regard to the sidecar photo is that it was taken in Germany. What I would like to know is just what is happening here? It's obviously not a race but looking at the photo they seem to be going fairly fast?

This looks like European sidecar long track action. No prizes for any forum member who can identify the team, the venue, the event and when. But it would be nice to know. Thank you.

Speedway sidecars would be just the kind of thing to enliven speedway meetings but obviously it would only work at the bigger tracks.
:t:

Having been a sidecar passenger for 8 years (speedway, grasstrack and a short spell on road racing) I have to say that sidecar speedway could be a great success in this country if properly promoted. It provides exciting racing, generally more overtaking than the solos. What has been lacking in the past was any kind of identity with which fans could associare themselves. Team racing with our favourite individuals has always been the bread and butter of 2 wheel racing so why not sidecar teams as a second half attraction? Oh well, I can dream. I might even come out of retirement if they'd let me double up. lol
As to it only working on the bigger tracks. We used to race regularly at Plymouth. Assuming you can get 4 outfits on the start line you can race anywhere.

A nasty looking incident, I think in Germany? When I get more details I will Post them on here - unless another member gives the needed background information for the photo.
